Cowboys Ranked #2 on Yahoo’s Top LB Core List

Jason Cole of Yahoo Sports! has his rankings of the LB spot, and he says other than the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Cowboys are right at the top of the list with DeMarcus Ware leading the way:

2. Dallas: Critics of DeMarcus Ware like to point out that his sacks (11) dropped by nearly 50 percent last season from 2008 and that his total tackles also saw a precipitous lag, dropping all the way to a career-low 57. Unfortunately, those critics also don’t draw up blocking schemes to deal with Ware, which is why he continues to be considered one of the most dynamic forces in the game. On the other side, Anthony Spencer made progress last season, collecting six sacks, mostly during an impressive run during the second half of the season. Inside linebackers Bradie James and Keith Brooking are solid, but the depth is untested.
